They have given me much insight into how Nascar is brought to my living room. Many of the answers (Steve, Wendy, Mike and Krista) seem to refer to the support from the behind the scenes perhaps this is the real problem at ESPN with bad chemistry and the wrong person/wrong place for those support staff. JD I cannot even begin to express how much I appreciate you creating a unique way for us fans to have a direct connection to the Nascar Media I so enjoy watching.

Presentation of NASCAR races is more than the sum of its parts. You can have a lot of talent, but without the element of chemistry (which cannot be programmed), it won't make the program elite.<BR/><BR/>On USA Today, they have an article of the Fox NFL studio crew. Even though NFL programs are also done on HBO, ESPN, and CBS, Fox once again outrates all the other networks. This season Fox averaged 3.1% for studio shows, ESPN only got 1.9%. <BR/><BR/>James Brown, the former anchor with Howie Long, Terry Bradshaw, and Jimmie Johnson, said:<BR/>"With Fox we had it. We had respect for one another, we loved one another and there was an unselfishness. The sound of success to him there? The sound of laughter.<BR/><BR/>"We sugarcoated the education pill, we disseminated information in a humorous fashion," he says. "If people could have a good time when they tuned in, then they would listen, and in the process we would drop pearls of wisdom on them."<BR/><BR/>I think NASCAR on Fox is the same. The folks at Fox love the sport, respect and care for each other, and have developed a chemistry that allows those watching / listening to join in the fun. <BR/><BR/>Looking forward to Daytona.elenahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13307257449151940082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-39188677511442471552008-01-11T10:56:00.000-05:002008-01-11T10:56:00.000-05:00Thanks to Krista for her answers and participation...Thanks to Krista for her answers and participation, and thanks to JD for setting this series up.<BR/><BR/>But I do have one question for you JD.
